Abstract
An electrical connector assembly includes an insulator, a PCB, first terminals, second terminals, and a FFC. The PCB is inserted in the slot. The PCB includes a first conductive parts embedded in the first slot holes and second conductive parts embedded in the second slot holes. The second terminals comprise first contacting parts and second contact parts. The first contacting parts are electrically connected the second conductive parts of the PCB. The insulator further comprises a cable slot, which connects the second slot holes so that the second contacting parts of the second terminals extend into the cable slot, to which the FFC is inserted in. The ends of the conductors are electrically connected the second contacting parts of the second terminals. Thus the problem with the existing soldering technology is solved since soldering is not needed.
